On the right side of Fang Yun was the current patriarch of the Yan Clan, Yan Ningshan.
According to convention, the patriarchs of the six quasi-saint families would take turns to preside over the Notre-Dame meeting, and the person presiding over it would sit at the highest position.
Now that Fang Yun was sitting in the main seat, Yan Ningshan could only take the second seat.
On the right side of Yan Ningshan were the patriarchs of the other five quasi-saint families.
Opposite Fang Yun and the patriarchs of the six quasi-saint families was the monarch of the Ten Nations.
The monarchs of the other nine nations were all dressed in yellow robes with crowns on their heads. Only the monarch of Jingguo was seated with a masked woman. He was constantly looking around with his small black eyes, and whenever he saw Fang Yun, he would smile innocently.
Apart from that, there were also the patriarchs of the quasi-saint families and the great Confucians of the human race. There were fruits and tea on the tables in front of them.
There was an obvious path separating their seats. Beyond the path were the scholars of the human race from all over the world. They were also seated in front of short tables, but there was nothing on the tables in front of them.
These scholars only had the right to sit in and listen. Without Yan Ningshan's invitation, they were not allowed to say a word. Once they spoke, they would definitely be chased out of the meeting hall. From then on, unless they became a great Confucian, they would never be allowed to sit in.
Among all the scholars who were not patriarchs, there was one exception. There were fruits and tea on the table in front of him.
It was the top scholar of the Bloodlight Realm, Wei Huangan.
In just a few days, he had already grown from a newly minted scholar to a Scholar of Natural Investigation. His talent was astounding.
The patriarch of the Kong Family was not present because he was a Half-saint.
As soon as the main door of the hall was closed, Yan Ningshan turned his head to look at Fang Yun and said with a smile, "Fang Xusheng, you have the highest status. Why don't you preside over this meeting of the Notre-Dame?"
Some people nodded gently. Clearly, Fang Yun was qualified to do so.
Fang Yun looked at Yan Ningshan with a smile. He had a kind face and a sparse goatee on his chin. His eyes were small but full of wisdom. It was as if he could see through all the ways of the world.
"This one's talent is shallow, and I don't understand the discussions of the masses, so it's difficult for me to preside over the discussion. This discussion should be presided over by Mr. Banhai, "Fang Yundao said.
Yan Ningshan named his study "Banhai Hut", so the world called him Mr. Banhai.
Yan Ningshan smiled faintly and was about to speak, but Fang Yun continued, "However, I'm not sure. There is one thing I would like to do before the discussion begins. I hope that Mr. Ban Hai will agree. "
"The meeting hasn't officially started yet. Fang Xusheng, please help yourself." Yan Ningshan agreed without hesitation.
"Thank you, Mr. Banhai," Fang Yun said as he took out a black cloth package from his Sea Swallowing Seashell.
All the Confucians present had sharp eyes. Even if only a corner of the Sea Swallowing Seashell was exposed, they could still see it.
Fang Yun carried the black package and casually tossed it to the head of the Gu Sheng Family.
Gu Jiewu, the head of the Gu Sheng Family, took the black package but didn't open it. Instead, he looked at Fang Yun. His eyes were cold.
Both the Wengsheng Family and the Gu Sheng Family had a close relationship with the Zong Family. Both families had targeted Fang Yun and were irreconcilable enemies.
Fang Yundao said, "Head of the Gu Family, you'd better take a look."
"Humph!" Gu Jiewu snorted and opened the black bag. He looked down and his face changed dramatically. Then, he immediately closed the bag. He put the black bag into the Drinking River Shell.
Gu Jiewu lowered his head slightly and stared at the table, motionless. He didn't dare to look at Fang Yun again.
Everyone in the hall looked at Gu Jiewu curiously. They wanted to know what was inside that made the head of the Gu Family so uneasy.
Fang Yun smiled and said, "This is just the first one. I will send the rest one after another. Mr. Ban Hai. Please. "
Yan Ningshan nodded gently.
Fang Yun glanced at Gu Jiewu and a fleeting smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Inside the black bag was the head of Gu Yuan, one of the Three Idiots of Xue Hai. Gu Yuan had disguised himself and entered the Bloodlight Ancient Land to assassinate Fang Yun. No matter how the Gu Family quibbled, since Fang Yun had taken Fang Yun's head, it meant that he had been caught red-handed. Even the Half-saint Family would have to pay a heavy price.
At that time, Fang Yun wasn't Xusheng. Fierce Lord Meng Lintang was controlled by the Zhenyu Evil Dragon and wanted to kill Fang Yun, forcing the head of the Meng Family to commit suicide. Now, Fang Yun's status was even higher. The crime of assassinating Fang Yun was even more serious.
The hall was very spacious and the atmosphere was very heavy.
Yan Ningshan coughed lightly and looked around at everyone. He said slowly, "I am indebted to all the Saints for your trust. Old Man is hosting this meeting. If there are any omissions, please forgive me. This is a matter of great importance. Long story short, the topic of this meeting is the Bloodlight World. In other words, how should the Notre-Dame govern the Bloodlight World? "
Hearing this, Wei Huangan's expression darkened. Yan Ningshan's words were too explicit. They didn't even discuss the ownership of the Bloodlight World, but directly discussed how to govern it. This also showed the attitude of the Human Race Saints.
Yan Ningshan paused for a moment and continued, "Everyone can freely discuss your plans and suggestions to help the Notre-Dame. If anyone has an opinion, you can signal the Old Man and let the Old Man choose. As for the scholars present, except for Wei Huangan, you can't participate for the time being. "
Hearing this, some of the scholars looked regretful, but then their gazes became more determined.
There was a brief silence in the hall.
Although this wasn't the most intense discussion of the Divine Path, it concerned two worlds. Every word was incomparably important, and no one would speak rashly.
After a full hundred breaths, a great scholar signaled to Yan Ningshan.
"Lei Tingzhen, what do you have to say?" Yan Ningshan called out the name of this great scholar of the Lei family. This was also the rule of the meeting, to call him by name.
Everyone's eyes focused on Lei Tingzhen's face. Fang Yun also looked over. It was a white-haired old man. His face was old, but his eyes were extremely bright and spirited.
"Mister Banhai, my friends. The Bloodlight World is an ancient land of traitors that everyone knows. The people here have tampered with the classics of Confucius and carelessly annotated them. They are enemies of the Legalists and the Notre-Dame. They are unworthy! This old man believes that there are three ways to govern the Bloodlight World. The best way is for all the families to act together and unify the Bloodlight World as quickly as possible. They will use thunderous methods to display the might of the Notre-Dame and the saints. Then, they will use both hard and soft methods to rope them in and suppress them. The best way is to use soft methods to gradually win the hearts of the people in the Bloodlight World and make it assimilate with the human race. The worst way is for the Bloodlight World to be autonomous and give up all authority, making the Bloodlight World equal to a country. "
Yan Ningshan nodded lightly and said, "Lei Tingzhen's three ways are quite insightful. Although it's a little vague, it points out three directions. It's a good plan. Weng Shi, please speak. "
The great scholar Weng Shi cupped his hands and said, "Old Man's view is similar to Lei Tingzhen's. The Bloodlight World has been an uncivilized place for many years, and the human race is currently in a precarious situation. If we don't act decisively, we will definitely be affected. The Old Man doesn't see any need to differentiate between the best and the worst ways. The Notre-Dame can directly charge into the Bloodlight World and send people to govern it. She will use both kindness and power, both soft and hard. She will use those who submit to her and eliminate those who resist. As for the other methods, they are a disaster and not a blessing. The time is fleeting. If we don't control the Bloodlight World as soon as possible and make it a backup world for the human race, the human race will be annihilated once Two World Mountain falls! "
